Scarlett added an entry about go back to school:

Yesterday I took a test that was compulsory for becoming an eligible candidate to one of the universities I’m applying to. Not going to say more about that, I’m just glad it’s over!

I got my second offer today, this conditional offer came from Exeter. Similar requirements to Reading, and the IELTS test score should be very much achievable (at least ...

Scarlett added an entry about go back to school:

I suppose now would be the time to catch up on this goal, for a lot has happened that I did not want to talk about too early on. Now that things seem to be rolling, though, I thought I could raise the curtain of mystery just a little.

I’ve been struggling with educational possibilities that Finland has to offer ever since I graduated from high schoo...

Right job, wrong industry 25.10 00:50

farossi added an entry about go back to school:

Going back to school seems to tie in with my need to quit my job. I’m working in software design right now, but in the wrong industry. I’m trying to lean more towards game design, not scrap management solutions (UGH… it bores me to death). It either means I need a MSc in game design, so that I can also get an internship, or I need to just get lucky ...

dickensian added an entry about go back to school:

Working on obtaining a dependancy override, once that happens I’ll be set to register for classes next semester.

So far I need to

1. Get transcripts
2. Fill out and mail paperwork sent with Unoffical Awards Letter, and a copy of 2008 signed/dated Federal Tax Return
3. Get letter from a professional and friend/family member
4. Write personal letter

ImprovingAlexsMom added an entry about go back to school:

I went by the school today and turned in the remainin items needed to the Admissions, Financial Aid, and Testing Offices. It took me 2 trips to each office…back and forth and back and forth and back and forth…but it’s done. And, I’m signed up for my placement test! Woo hoo! I’m a little nervous about the placement test. I haven’t really...

Do I really want to do this? Am I perhaps (probably… almost certainly) doing this for lack of any better idea and a lackluster impression of the real world?

I began the process.... 10.10 03:16

ImprovingAlexsMom added an entry about go back to school:

I have applied for financial aid, I had my transcripts sent, I went to see an advisor, and am filling out the application for admission. I have decided on being a teacher. Now, I just have to decide between Elementary or Secondary Education. I have my first 2 years of school to decide that. Whew! So, now I just need to turn in my appli...

But I am not marking this off my list quite yet.

I am halfway through the cosmetology program. After that I plan to transfer and get an AAS for substance abuse counseling. I also need to take some marketing, accounting, and small business classes. I will mark this goal off once I am done with it all. (_)...

Just to clarify... 19.09 06:27

attackferret added an entry about Go back to school:

I was looking at my list, and I saw this goal looking all sad and alone, cheered but not described. I know this goal means many different things for many different people.

For me, this is not an immediate goal – this is a general goal for my future. I’d like to go back for a master’s degree or PhD at some point, but my degree interests are far t...

I want to go back to school! 19.09 05:06

hippiechick74 added an entry about Go back to school:

I started a class to become a medical assistant a few years ago. I was traveling over an hour one way. When the gas prices hit their peak, I had to stop going. This broke my heart but I had no choice I couldn’t afford it. I would like to either finish the program somewhere closer or take a similar program. I work in health care now so I wan...

Buisty added an entry about go back to school:

I already am loving this program. I’m enjoying each of my classes (and that’s including Anatomy and Physiology – two classes I NEVER thought I would take). There’s so much to learn in Fitness and Health and I don’t want to stop! It feels so good to be back in school again....

September 8th – first day of classes.

Though the only thing I have to do today is pick up some reading material from my internship, I’m officially back in school! Last week I attended some orientation sessions, I’ll do some reading later today, and I’ll start classes on Wednesday. Though I’m quite overwhelmed, I’m much more optimistic and exc...

Which Road Should I Take? 26.08 09:17

i appreciated several quote snippets:
”..things don’t end wrong, they begin wrong!”

”..don’t postpone your purpose.”

candiedcamera added an entry about go back to school:

I had a really hard time when I started high school because of my extreme social anxiety. I ended up missing school for days at a time only because I couldn’t force myself through the door. I switched to a more relaxed school which I loved, but was no good at, and then switched to an internet high school. After hating it for a while, I quit. N...

bluuphoxx added an entry about Go back to school:

I have tried the whole going back to school thing several times before. I was doing rather well 3 years ago, until my two daughters had to get home instruction (thus breaking my concentration and throwing off my whole schedule). All focus went back to them and their needs.

Now that everyone is much older, and better equipped to deal with their medi...

Step one 07.08 05:17

BleachedClean added an entry about Go back to school:

I’m actually past step one already. Step one was apply, then go see my counselor.

Now, I need to pay a fee from last semester so I can register for this semester. It seems like everytime I find a little money to go to school, something else huge (like a $225 electric deposit) falls in my lap. Almost feels like God doesn’t want me to go.

My GPA is 1.4 and I owe $339 to my old Junior College. I was taking a load and a half of classes my last semester and I quit without “withdrawing”, making my GPA plummet. Shit, shit, shit. It’s okay, I’ll get this taken care of and then I’ll start over. Now where the heck can I come up with $339. Anyone need a kidney? Hmmm… I bet they’re worth more...
